Question about PT's..

Hello All,

I started the 7sage course in January 2015. I have being doing PT's for 2 weeks now with 2 PT's/week as I work full time. I bought the Premium package so I have PT's 36-57. This means that by test day, I should have completed all of these at the current rate. However, I am wondering if I should buy the more recent PT's (60 and on) in order to better prepare? This would mean skipping some of the PT's that come with the 7sage package that I have already bought, which is fine if that would be more helpful. Is this preferable? Any recommendations are welcome! Thanks in advance!

Current city: Seattle-would love to go to UW as I am interested in Public Interest Law

Where the free rent is: Suburb of Kansas City (so you are correct on KC mischief)-I would NOT love to go the KU Law

Thank you for the encouragement @ It's hard for me to think about going back home, since it's one of those towns that I have spent my whole life trying to leave. However, if I commit to my goal of studying/applying this year and giving that all of my energy and attention, then I wouldn't regret taking this year off from a city I love/work that I enjoy. Hoping for the best in October with you!

My diagnostic in January was 147. Went through the whole 7sage curriculum from January to the June test w/a PT average of 153-155 (so, not surprised by the 150). Which makes me wonder as to what the issue could have been, since I did not improve that much from the diagnostic...

BR was usually 165-168. I had an outlier of 160 a few weeks before the June LSAT- I think even if I didn't get the 165 next time around, I would be happy with a 160.

December might be a good fall back plan, I just want to apply with enough time for scholarships/early decision, etc. However, whatever it takes to get the best score will need to happen.

Logic Games is definitely my weakness, especially timing. Didn't get to the last game on the June LSAT. I need to focus on keeping up with the Fool Proof Method on here.

-6 to -8 in LR is typical. Flaw/Weaken questions are difficult for me.

-9 to -12 in RC is typical. I felt I was doing better with this up to the June test (especially from reading thetrainer section on this), but I did the worst in this section on test day...

@ @

I took the June LSAT and scored 150. Needless to say, I would like to do better next time around. I had a pretty demanding job this past year (as many of you here know, it is very difficult to work/study), but I followed through with the Premium 7sage course + many PT's + the Trainer. However, I am committed to retaking the test with the best possible strategy in mind. I am currently in a time of transition with work and here are my two options, which I am hoping to get your advice on:

1) I could try to stay in the city I live in currently and get a part time/full time (less demanding than my previous) job + take a BluePrint class and see if my issue all along studying was that I am not very good at self-study.

OR

2) I could go back to my hometown (the suburbs) and dedicate all of August and September to not working and only self-study for the LSAT (there are no BluePrint classes...or any good LSAT prep classes) whatsoever in my hometown. This would also mean that I would most likely extend my 7sage package and work through Cambridge Packets, Logical Games Bible, PT's, etc.

I am 22 years old and I definitely want to come back to the current city I live in for law school (which means option 1 would be good for establishing residency in this state). However, I would need a 165ish to get into law schools around here. So overall, what seems like the better study plan to help me get the best score possible for October? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
